Falcon users: lowrider 5-167 or cara 5-167

Terminator · 11-25-08, 01:21 AM

Anybody have any experience with either of these? Trying to decide between the two.
Rod will be paired with my Chronarch 50mg that's in the mail!

I know the Cara is supposed to be lighter, but are there any other differences? Is it worth the extra $$$ ?

Setup will mainly be used for flukes and other weightless or very lightly
weighted soft plastics. Any input appreciated, guys.

i am a falcon nut! i own a bunch of falcons and love all of them. falcon cara's are worth the extra money in my opinion. to me they feel a lot more balanced and more comfortable. i don't own any lowriders but i absolutley love my cara's.

I own lowriders and i like 'em. They are super sensitive to me and are light weight.

and that is what you are going to find. rods feel different to everybody, what i like you may hate and the other way around. go with what feels best to you.

I'm a Falcon fan, too. I've got 2 Low Riders in this model and love them. Great rods. I have a couple different model Caras and they are great rods, too. You won't be disappointed with either.
